I was in the process of taking my vehicle to the dealership for a brake job, and they had already quoted me an astronomical price. I decided to look around for another option, and to my surprise, the first place I called was Mission Muffler and Brakes. I spoke with Jose about the dull squeaking sound my brakes were making, and he explained that if that was the case, the issue could likely be repaired for a much lower price. Jose was awesome! Once the inspection was completed, he explained everything to me in detail, and the final price was more than half of what the dealership was going to charge. That said, I highly recommend Mission Muffler and Brakes -- they are the best! I wish I could give them 10 stars!!! read more

Fast and easy. The service was professionally done and at a great price. Customer service was super friendly. I would come back again

Where do I start! If you have any exhaust/muffler work needed on your vehicle, don't waste your time! Go here! Jose is so professional, understanding and you'll get the best value for your bank! I needed an exhaust welded on a 2025 Lexus and no other shop near by was confident in doing it, Jose didn't hesitate, and put on the lift within 10 minutes. I can tell Mario knows how to run a professional shop and he hired the right professional staff in the front. As dealer, I will only take my cars here for exhaust work. This shop takes their time to explain things to customers and walk them through the process. read more

As usual the quality of work and pricing keeps me coming back to this shop. The appointment time was honored

Used the yelp projects page which got me in contact with Mario from Mission Muffler who responded to my call even though it was his day off! We talked about a leak I had in my car and instead of wanting me to come in ASAP like other places did we came up with a treatment plan and 2 days later I still brought it in. They were so nice and extremely professional and showed me where the leak was coming from to dissuade my worries. In comparison to another shop which wanted $125 JUST for diagnostic! Thank god that day something came up and I had to cancel with them and found this place instead. they are so welcoming and honest. Will definitely come back for any time my car needs something! read more

Referred to Mission from my auto shop. I received same day service on the spot for a very reasonable price for a muffler weld. Will be recommending them and should I need muffler work in the future will be returning. read more

Mission gave propmt service that was precisely what I wanted. I already had something that didn't fit precisely, and I wanted better after removing some of it to do other work customizing my car. I am picky and fussy about letting anyone else touch the car that I've built myself, and they were very careful to protect my car's fresh paint and listened well to my specific directions while I let them do what they thought best in most areas. Fast service. Quality work. No leaks on startup (I kept the keys, so they hadn't tested for leaks). Very pleased that they had a spot open on short notice (they really prefer appointments). Great work, guys! read more

I was looking for a reputable place to get my brakes fixed and found Mission Muffler and Brakes on Yelp. I chose them based on their great reviews--and I'm glad I did. I came in without an appointment and spoke with the manager, Jose, who was incredibly accommodating. After inspecting my brakes, the team was transparent, honest, and made me feel confident in the service my car needed. They were fast, efficient, and got everything done smoothly. The price for replacing both brakes was fair, and they even offer a lifetime warranty, which really gave me peace of mind. Overall, a great experience--highly recommend Mission Muffler and Brakes for anyone looking for reliable and trustworthy service. read more

I cannot recommend this muffler and brake shop enough! I recently had them perform a muffler delete, and the result was absolutely flawless--they did an amazing job. Beyond the technical skill, the entire staff was incredibly helpful and friendly, making the whole process easy and transparent. It's rare to find a shop with this level of expertise and customer care. If you need brake work or custom exhaust/muffler services, you need to go here. I will definitely be back for future work! read more

Very awful and bad communication, given multiple pricing, said 195 an hour to install a bolt on exhaust

First time at this shop for brakes fluid flush and bleeding. The reviews about this shop, especially, Jose and Mario, are all true. Also, Nelson, the technician, has done a thorough inspection of my brakes, called me to show me some oil leaks that I need to take care of in the future, and did a great job on adjusting my brakes and bleeding them. They were very honest, kind, professionals, helpful to me, and to three other customers who came in while I am waiting. They have done more work and surpassed my expectations. As a pastor, I will surly recommend them to my congregation. I did ask God to bless this business and their families. read more

Got my brakes and rotors replaced and had a great experience. The shop was quick and affordable. Definitely recommend if you're looking for reliable brake work. read more

Local, Honest & Customer Service oriented is how I would describe Mission Muffler & Brake. I went to get my brakes replaced & they delivered in a timely fashion. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend others to get their muffler or brakes repaired here. They even gave me a follow up call too, which was such a thoughtful gesture. read more

Amazing service, friendly staff. I requested a quote for brakes and got a fast reply. Turnaround time was fast and ended up only needing to get rotors resurfaced. I appreciated the free inspection and felt in good hands from start to finish. I'll be back for any future brake and muffler needs! read more

Jose great man very knowledgeable and great pricing for those that don't trust easy. He'll get you out the door feeling confident and ready. Did exhaust work on my wife's car but I didn't have a welder or knowledge so I took it to him and he helped me out. Thank you. read more

Amazing auto mechanic shop. They did free inspection of my Honda before even suggesting any repairs to my brake unlike couple other shops I visited. After inspection, they suggested minimum totally reasonable fixes. My final cost of fixing my brake issue was one third of other shops. True professional and very hard working folks. Jose was very kind and extremely professional as well. I would recommend this shop without even thinking twice. Keep up the good work. read more

Anyone who needs a muffler or catalytic converter replaced look no where else. I have not met a more personable person than Jose! He is honest, pleasant and knows what he's doing. He got me in right away to have my catalytic converter replaced so that my car could pass smog. I highly recommend this business and will send my friends and family to this muffler and auto repair shop. The quality of work and the fast service will is superior to other places I have taken my vehicle to. Also being a senior female I really appreciate honesty and Jose is honest and did not try to take advantage of me. Price is very reasonable. I would give Jose 20 stars if I could. read more

TLDR; made an appointment to have aftermarket axel back exhaust installed and in addition asked if they can install a cold air intake I recently purchased as well. I drive a 2021 Mustang GT and the parts I bought were straight from Roush Performance. It took the team 2 days just for them NOT to install my cold air because the install was a bit outside of their scope. The exhaust sounds great hence why I'm rating this 2/5. I just didn't appreciate the run around with the intake when they initially told me they can install it. I was also up charged for the labor of having to get my stock intake installed, which again as a customer, shouldn't fall back on me that they took on a job that they couldn't complete. I personally won't be returning or referring any new biz sadly but Jose did provide good service and communicated thoroughly throughout the process, so kudos to him. My suggestion - if you aren't 100% confident on the install, don't accept the job. Thanks for exhaust install though! read more

Received amazing service from Jose and the team. Jose was able to inspect my car and give me an estimate within the hour. My car was repaired and ready for me to pick back up within a couple of hours. Being I found them through Yelp I was given a great value for having all new brakes installed. Thank you to the online responder for all your information as well. read more

Great service! I used Yelp to get a service request and get in touch with shops around to help with a continuous check engine light that a different shop couldn't figure out. This shop has the best people. José was very friendly and informative and honest. Reasonable prices and great community environment. Would go back for any future issues that the shop specializes in. read more

Went here this psst week to get a muffler and exhaust tip installed on my truck. Jose spoke to me initially and advised the best route for parts (muffler) i bought had a 3" insert and exit, for best results advised 2.5" would be best. Had the parts installed and came out great. Truck sounds great, but after driving a little bit i noticed the tip was rattling. Came back and Jose had my car looked at and said we'll adjust the exit a little to get the custom exit more aligned. Def bringing my GTO here next. read more

It's been 6 months since I had my brakes fixed at Mission Muffler & Brake and they're still going strong.

Shout out to Mission Muffler for getting me in and out so quickly! Sent a yelp message asking for a quote Friday evening and first thing Saturday morning at 8AM they responded. Thanks Mario for the quick price quote. Called Jose in the morning and told him I can be there asap and it was spot on. He got me in quickly and had Edgar start the custom exhaust set up right away. 10/10 will recommend to everyone specially if your in Hayward! read more

Had my exhaust installed here. They were very straight forward and easy to talk to over the phone. Got it done quickly, no bs, just to the point honest work. 10/10 would recommend. Good guys here. read more

Brought in my own exhaust (just muffler) to be installed which required new welding and piping to line up and they did a good job and seem to be enthusiastic about standing behind their work. I don't expect any problems but it is helpful to know they are not shy about warrantying some work even though it wasn't their part (But obviously won't warranty my muffler bought elsewhere). Some shops just won't install other things you bring in. read more

True honest shop! The Manager Jose is great and will take care of you! Fair prices and they will get you in and out in a good time frame.

Jose was very helpful, transparent and honest. His guys are very well trained and knowledgeable. Right away you can feel that you're in good hands when you bring your vehicle here. They are very professional and very good at what they do. If you need some work done to your vehicle, take it here you will be very happy with the results! read more

Manager Jose and his MM&B team takes care of my 2006 Infiniti M35 brake issues (rotor resurfacing and brake pad replacement). Now brakes are working great.

Great price and quality personal service. Jose was helpful, professional, and available. Will come here again

Mario and Jose were great with communication throughout the whole process. I got fast responses by messaging them through Yelp and I was able to take my car in the next day. I needed to get new break pads, rotors, and a few other things done and I was quoted over $900 at another shop. They were able to do it for almost half that price. Dropped my car off right when they opened and it only took them a couple hours and I had my car back by 12:30. Would go back to them again for any other services needed in the future and definitely recommend to others. read more

They gave me 3 choices of muffler sound to choose from by letting me hear all 3 first. They even used the original tips for the stock look I was going for. Great customer service. Very thorough. Clean work. read more

Mario and Jose are Excellent! They really go the extra mile for customer service, ethical care of the customer, and to educate you of your options. Honest, dependable, and kind. They take care of the elderly and they treat others as they would like to be treated. They tell you it's best to see the cause of why with your mechanic your getting that check engine light rather than just replace Cats as that does not fix the root of the problem. This really is a gem. read more

This place was great! Called and they quoted me $200 to install the catalytic converter shield I bought elsewhere on my Prius. Priuses are prime targets for the crime so I was scared to park on the streets. They used rivets for a more sturdy hold. They also advised me to come in a few minutes before opening so I would be insured a quick job. I did just that and was seen right away. $200 as promised and they let me check out their work under the car afterward. There were lots of people in the shop with stolen catalytic converters so I felt like I made the right choice in installing this. Would recommend! read more
